RTÉ admits paying Tubridy €345,000 more than declared

With the public and media focus on this would Tubridy be likely to WIN a legal case for breach of contract? (considering whatever is left on his RTE radio contract) and how much would it cost to pay him off if Backhurst decides to opt for letting him go. Apparently Backhurst is asking the opinions of Tubridy's colleagues on whether to keep him which is supposed to be divided. Tubridy said he could be out of a job by Friday which is now tomorrow. It will be interesting to see how Backhurst deals with Tubridy and will be a sign as to how effective or ineffective this guy will be.

Tubs will have no other offers, 75K will probably be 75k more than anyone else will offer the “top talent” 🤣🤣

Forbes is a joke going around with her New York style glasses. She’s watched too many romcoms I think. These RTE scroungers think they are in Hollywood with agents etc. They are a loss making entity, Hollywood studios are capitalist privately owned and profitable. What planet brought in these people? They are so misguided I have no idea. Bakhurst is another I’m not falling for. I’m not falling for his softly softly measured jibberish, he looks like he burnt the candle at both ends for some years and is playing the mummy’s boy now to the RTE view shop base of country conservative nationalising socialists. There’s skeletons in his closet.

I’m sick of these country wans like Blathnaid no Chofai showing us dissenters compassion as though to say they are at peace and we in pieces. Do these people have any idea how the world outside of Ireland works where a country needs to earn money to stay afloat. That loss making public entities should be privatised or shut down?

I am for an idea called creative destruction where certain non performing employees are culled or fired every cycle. And this entails a lot of pain of pain but keeps the country/businesses healthy. If we pander to the sick in society and give them precedence over all others we will become a sick society. Decimate the bottom 10% regularly and this leads to healthy businesses and economy.

Prime time now rolling out the trotskies saying Tubridy is an entertainer and needs to be given industry standard salary. I’ve never come across a more upside down country. These people are subordinates and leeches. Tubridy is wooden. He has the personality of a plank of wood. He would be laughed out of Hollywood with his “mind yourselves” socialist jibberish while demanding his pay isn’t cut. Talented my whole!
